New Orleans, LA — The Kearney Companies, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Precision Terminal Logistics (PTL), is excited to announce that it has completed an expansion of its transportation management and logistics service offerings.
Through this service expansion, The Kearney Companies now offers specialized transportation and logistics solutions that are unique to each customer’s supply chain needs. These services include full-scale truck brokerage services, rail freight management and rail logistics support, barge freight management and barge logistics support, commodity warehousing, bulk and break-bulk truck/rail transloading, and other related value-added logistics services. This service expansion will benefit both new and existing customers. Kearney will additionally extend these specialized logistics solutions to current and future PTL customers in the various independent rail/truck transload terminals operated by PTL (e.g. Jackson, MS; Jeffersonville, IN, Louisville, KY, San Antonio, TX, New Orleans, LA and Savannah, GA).
“It has always been our goal to provide end-to-end transportation solutions for customers with service needs to/from our existing terminals in New Orleans and Savanah. Now, with this service expansion, we can offer these same “end-to-end” logistics and transportation services in any location where we do not necessarily have a physical terminal/warehouse presence.” explained David Kearney, President of The Kearney Companies. “Our idea is to function as an extension of our customers and follow them wherever they need our transportation and logistics services.”
The new expansion will be led by an experienced and well-connected team who will find efficient and effective solutions to meet customers' needs from the first mile to the last. This transportation and logistics service team has decades of experience in barge, rail, and truck transportation as well as experience in developing partnerships and solutions for customers with warehousing, stevedoring, and other logistics service needs across the United States, including the Lower Mississippi River and various East Coat and Gulf Port Gateways. This team is based in New Orleans, LA at The Kearney Companies corporate offices.
